We have built a total of about 1250 of this aircraft (Me-262), but only fifty were allowed to be used as fighters - as interceptors. And out of this fifty, there were never more than 25 operational. So we had only a very, very few.

There was a German guy here who was playing around with that stuff and they made a lot of videos of him flying around on (or should I say gliding super fast) to rock music, and he burned one in and died, if I recall.
